Visions of winter.

We are moving again, no ice, no snow and actual sunshine. Snowdrops and crocuses in bloom and buds showing on the trees, could it be that spring is on its way? At Hinckley to top up supplies before heading off for the wide blue yonder. Enough signal to download photos' so here are a few from our sojourn on the Ashby.

Didn't it look lovely.


This chap took up residence in a hawthorn bush opposite us in the worst of the freeze and defended it against all comers, they were his berries and he wasn't sharing.


The icicles almost turned the bridge into a portcullis.


The local blackbird appreciated a bit of bread thrown on the ice.

We actually got water out of this frozen lump.


Here comes the cavalry!
